Cyrillic Chat Filter  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.4
by: Xerton [More]
For more info type /channelinfo

Although I do not want to discriminate anyone who uses cyrillic, i still find myself distracted when reading it in the chat, so i wrote this addon to filter those messages.

If you find any bugs or have suggestions contact me @SoftDeath (EU)

To clarify the current behaviour:
Filtered chat channels include: All guilds, zones, say and yell
The following channels will NOT be filtered: Officers, whisper and messages in any channel written bei yourself

You can change the behaviour via the settings menu.

The old slashcommands are still working:
Type /channel <channelname> into the chat
e.g. /channel tell
This would add the tell channel to the filtered channels

Type /channelstatus to see which channels are being filtered
Type /channelinfo to see this tutorial ingame
[1.4]
- API Bump 100018 - Homestead

[1.3]
- added a settings menu
- if you find any bugs please let me know in the comment section or contact me @SoftDeath (Pc/EU)
if possible provide a screenshot. thx

[1.2]

type /channelinfo into the chat for more information

Maybe cyrillic wouldn't look that grose as it does at the moment in chat then
So instead of removing a language you can't read anyways and which is spamming zone quite excessively you think it's a better idea to make it look nice... Right.
Let's stay constructive and be polite to each other, shall we?

I then have been thinking about a chat some time ago with a friend from russia, and we came upon that, that the main problem about cyrillic in eso is the bad letter spacing - i wish for an addon, which just corrects the letter spacing by changing the font of cyrillic in chat (adding another font, which better supports cyrillic).

Could be an additional option for your addon too
There already is an addon changing the font: RuESO Chat - Better Cyrillic Fonts

You might want to check out LAM for that. It makes adding a menu quite simple.
If you'd like to see it in action, my DailyAutoShare uses what I currently consider best practice - I have the DASUserSettingsAdapter which holds GetXX and SetXX functions for every settings item, all interaction between the AddOn and the SavedVariables happens over these functions.

It also does not filter messages in group chat and i am still not sure if i should change that but i propably will.
That's awesome *installs*. Wasn't clear from the description, though, you might want to edit it? (In case you have no idea how, there's a "manage add-on" link on the upper right of the AddOn-page. Which I didn't see before Cairenn pointed it out to me. -.-)
As a temporary solution i added slashcommands to configure the addon settings.
But thx a lot, i will definitly check that out!

Also due to your first post, i had already adjustet the addon description and it should now be clear what it does

As to your first point:
Currently it does NOT filter messages you write yourself, get as a whisper or in an officers chat, as i consider all of them to be importent.
It also does not filter messages in group chat and i am still not sure if i should change that but i propably will.
As soon as i added a detailed options menu the current state will be default behaviour
